Top group pet: I am a national treasure in the beast world
Chapter 123 Life is a miracle made up of countless coincidences!
What Uncle Lizard took her to was a very ordinary family restaurant with booths for four people, not-so-clean tables and menus, casual food presentation, busy staff and all kinds of noisy guests.
Compared with the environment where Xiao Xingxing got along with before, the state of the beast people here is closer to "ordinary people", not so colorful, not so lively and beautiful, but the breath of life is everywhere... It seems to confirm that sentence : Life is not about poetry and distance, but daily necessities and endless ups and downs.
"What to eat?"
Draco handed the menu card to the girl looking around in front of him, and watched her take it, but after looking at it from top to bottom, he couldn't make up his mind, and finally raised his head and looked at him eagerly.
"Just like, just like you."
She's the kind of person who doesn't dare to order dishes that she hasn't eaten before when she steps into a new restaurant, for fear of ordering something that won't taste good... Of course, more importantly, she can't understand the names of the dishes on the menu.
"Grilled caterpillars with rice" "Dew dipping sauce set meal" "Tenderloin burger (not for the pig race)" "Iron plate green grass leaves" "Feed (for all races)"
From a human point of view, these are some messy things!Forget about the grilled caterpillars in front, what the hell is the last feed!You don't even need to pretend, do you?
Why didn't Xiao Xingxing realize that the food eaten by these animal citizens was so strange.
"Really?" Draco nodded, and called the waiter to order, "Two servings of mixed fried rice with insects—"
"Etc., etc!!"
The girl opposite suddenly screamed, and the cloth strips on her face almost fell off in panic.
"I, I want this tenderloin burger!"
help! !She doesn't want to eat insect fried rice! !
The waiter finished ordering and left, but Draco was thoughtful... She ordered a hamburger, does that mean she is a carnivore?But in his cognition, most carnivorous animals have sharp claws, but looking at her hands, it's not like that at all...
That is... mixed blood?
Draco was hesitant to ask her about it.
However, before he could speak, she spoke first.The girl held the yellowed cup and said cautiously, "That... thank you for bringing me to dinner."
Her voice is very light, soft and not too sticky, with some airy air, reminiscent of the shaking wind chimes under the summer night sky.
"You're welcome, you're the one who pays anyway." Draco replied, his voice was cold and hard, he had always spoken to others in this unemotional tone, and over time, he had forgotten how to communicate normally with people.
Noticing that the girl was shivering from the coldness of his tone, he paused and lowered his voice: "I mean, you've already thanked me, so you don't need to keep repeating it."
"...Okay, okay."
Xiao Xingxing flinched a little. Although he thought this uncle was a good person, to be honest... the two societies really couldn't communicate!
She quietly peeked at the other side from the gap in the forehead hair, and saw that the other side had also lowered their eyes, and their eyes fell on the menu card, not knowing what to look at.The light red pupils are like cold black tea, there is no ripple in the ancient well, not even the slightest ripple.The unique eye shadows of cold-blooded animals fall suddenly, and the prismatic pupils are like scales on the face, with smooth and neat edges. The dark green scales emit a faint halo under the light, revealing a colorful black.
He took off his old-fashioned suit jacket, and his plain white shirt and tie were no different from ordinary office workers, except that his overly tall and broad shoulders and arms looked more like a fitness trainer than social animals.The thick snake tail that Xiao Xingxing had cared about since the first time he saw him was curled up on the seat, directly occupying the remaining seat.Whether it was on purpose or not, the sharp tail of the prismatic cuticle kept hitting the seat.
There was a sentence that she didn't know whether to say or not, she really couldn't take her eyes off the tip of the tail at all, just like a cat seeing a cat teaser, she really wanted to go up and grab it.
"...are you listening to me?"
The person in front of him knocked on the table, Xiao Xingxing suddenly came back to his senses, his eyes finally moved away from his tail, and met his opponent's eyes.
"Yes, sorry..."
He sighed again, looking extremely tired, with a rustling voice—he seemed to be tired all the time: "I ask, what's your name? I can't keep calling you hello, can I?"
"I..." Xiao Xingxing was stunned for a moment, then murmured, "You can call me Xingxing."
The name Xing Xing is very common, and she is not worried that she will be exposed.
"Xingxing...huh, the same as the human on TV?"
He held his chin, and the TV in the restaurant was playing a collection of videos of human Xiao Xingxing appearing in the public eye. He could see this video being broadcast every time he came... probably hundreds or thousands of times, These guys really don't get tired of it at all.
Only then did Xiao Xingxing notice what was broadcast on TV, and he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and stuttered: "Yes, yes! It just happens to have the same name!"
"..." Those cold-blooded eyes turned around again, and he suddenly asked, "Are you cold?"
"what?"
"...Nothing." He quickly changed the subject, "My name is Draco, Draco Bond."
"Okay, Mr. Draco." She nodded seriously, "I remember."
A well-behaved girl always makes people feel affectionate, maybe that's why Draco couldn't leave her alone.He felt that he finally liked to worry like a middle-aged father: "You can treat me as nosy - do you... need help?"
He didn't forget the girl's expression when she said she couldn't go back, so he couldn't rest assured.
The other party's serious expression makes people believe that as long as she nods, he will immediately try his best to help her like that, which made Xiao Xingxing entangled for a while: "I..."
She really wants to ask someone for help, but she is afraid of getting people involved in a lot of trouble, especially a good person like him.
"I, my home is far away, and I can't go back for the time being..." She could only say so vaguely, "But it's okay, I can make money—" At least eat and sleep well first, just now The so-called bridge to the bow is naturally straight, there is always a way!
"...Do you mean making money in that kind of place?" He suddenly interrupted her with a complicated expression.
"That kind of place?" Xiao Xingxing didn't quite understand what he meant by that kind of place. In her opinion, although the restaurant was a bit run-down, the food it sold was quite good...
"..." Draco sighed again, looking at her expression, it seemed that she really didn't know where she was going.
The food they ordered was delivered at this time, and this topic was put aside for the time being.Xiao Xingxing only took one look at the other party's insect fried rice and didn't want to take another look... Is that stuff really edible?
On the other hand, my tenderloin burger, although the patty is synthetic, but a lot of sauces and side dishes cover the not-so-fresh taste, at least it doesn't taste weird at all... The only shortcoming, no, it should be hers Disadvantage, the portion is too big, she seems to be unable to finish it.
Draco has been observing her, and saw that she didn't take off the cloth strip on her face even when she was eating, but sent the food in through the gap in a very tricky posture, chew it, chew it, it looks a bit like Tibetan food little hamster.
He asked: "Don't you take it off after eating?
"Huh?" She froze for a moment, realized what he was pointing at, and said with a dry smile, "Yeah, my face... I'm afraid I'll scare you."
"Really?" He didn't ask any more questions, and quietly finished his meal, but the girl had only eaten half of her hamburger, and her chewing speed was getting slower and slower.
"Can't eat anymore?"
"Um...sorry."
She is a little embarrassed, now that she is so poor and wastes food.
"Then pack it up and take it away."
There is no other way now, but this is the only way.The waiter brought lunch boxes to pack, and Xiao Xingxing also paid for the bill together. The two meals cost nearly seventy dollars, and I have to admit that spending my own money will make everything feel very expensive.
After walking out of the shop, it was time to return to the bridge, the girl thanked him again, and walked towards the dark alley with a paper bag in her hand.
Draco stared at her back, thinking that maybe he would never see her again... I don't know why this heart that has been hardened by society has been born with melancholy for a long time, but...
He's not a nosy character, so let it be.
He also turned and left, but before he had gone far, he heard the sound of things falling and a faint muffled groan behind him.
Almost like a conditioned reflex, Draco turned around and strode towards the source of the sound. Under the flickering street lights, the paper bag was lying on the ground, and the thin girl was squatting in the corner with her belly in her arms, her thin clothes showing her raised spine, Trembling slightly.
"Ugh..."
The girl whimpered, her eyes filled with tears when she raised her head.
"it hurts……"
Compared with the environment where Xiao Xingxing got along with before, the state of the beast people here is closer to "ordinary people", not so colorful, not so lively and beautiful, but the breath of life is everywhere... It seems to confirm that sentence : Life is not about poetry and distance, but daily necessities and endless ups and downs.
